Which Fuel system? I have a 93 camaro. This winter i will be strapping on a on3 turbo, but until then i am doing things to get the car ready for big numbers. I am now looking into fuel setups. I plan on running e85 when i get to that point. So that being said, What does everyone recommend. I plan to make around 600whp off the bat but eventually want to see the 1000whp mark. Ive heard stock 3/8s line under the car is good for 1000+? so i souldnt need to run new lines.
a couple of decent pumps in the tank, keep it simple. Let one run all the time, switch the second on for some boost. $350 in the tank, give or take, quiet operation, long life, affordable solution. 1000whp let it come first. You dont want to be driving around with all the fueling capability if you crash the car before you need it, huge waste of money to upgrade all the lines and buy the more expensive pumps first, its like building a motor for forced induction then running it naturally aspirated for 50k miles first. Wearing it out without it ever seeing its intended purpose. Those pumps might be trash by the time you are ready to make more power, regardless of which ones you buy. It just depends how far "the future is" but judging by the complexity of a turbo setup, you are indicating that you intend to change it/them, I am betting on that being a while away.

For 1000whp on E85, you'll need a LOT of fuel pressure on the stock lines. You might as well upgrade the lines. It doesn't have to cost a fortune, it can be done very cheap.
I would recommend a pair of AEM 320 LPH E85 pumps. A LOT easier to squeeze in the tank than a pair of the big Walbro 450s.
